Large Fire Destroys Isleton 'Eyesore'

Two Condemned Buildings Burn

ISLETON, Calif. -- A large fire destroyed two condemned, abandoned buildings Friday evening in the center of Isleton.

The buildings were located at the corner of 2nd and A street. Fire officials said the structures had been deemed unsafe about three years ago.

"They condemned it because a lot of the studs were taken out of it. The walls had buckled a little bit. So we absolutely from the beginning of this fire never sent anybody in," said Assistant Fire Chief Dan Schindler of the Montezuma Fire Department.
